Title: Ear health of aboriginal primary school children in the Eastern Goldfields Region of Western Australia. Author: Watson DS, Clapin M. Journal: Aust J Public Health; 1992 Mar; 16(1):26-30. PubMed ID: 1627706.

A heavy burden of ear disease and hearing loss is reported and the findings are compared with previous surveys. A conclusion is drawn that the ear health of this population has not improved in the last decade.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
